[QUOTE="luci5r, post: 1183811, member: 113478"] For over 6 years now I've been using MediaPortal on our main HTPC in the home theater. Towards the end of this month, I'm building a new Skylake/Pascal based HTPC which will replace the old Sandy Bridge HTPC. This new HTPC will be the main MediaPortal HTPC. All media will be stored on this machine. What I'd like to do is take the old Sandy Bridge HTPC and put it in our bedroom. I would still like to have MediaPortal on this machine but I'd like to stream all media from the main MediaPortal HTPC in the Home Theater. Streaming is not an issue because I can obviously define network paths for the media. I currently do that since I have Dune Smart D1 network player in the bedroom which streams media stored on the MediaPortal HTPC in the home theater. My main question is: I use MovingPictures for movies & MP-TVSeries for tv shows. All of this media will be stored on the main MediaPortal HTPC in the home theater. So if I add new movies or tv shows to the MediaPortal HTPC in the home theater - will they automatically appear in the bedroom, or will I need to run imports separately in the MediaPortal HTPC in the bedroom? What I'm looking for is sort of a "Server - Client" situation where any media updates on the Server become available on the Client. I don't know if this is possible with MediaPortal or not. I've only ever run it on a single machine. Thanks for suggestions & advice. [/QUOTE]
